Service was fast and the enchiladas with Rice and beans were delicious! 1st time eating at this place and I wish I had gone sooner. The fresh squeezed lemonade delicious too. And the prices were fair. It was a little warm inside though but, I'll still go back .

Started out with a cup of oatmeal, choice of cinnamon and brown sugar,to top it off. I enjoyed the flour tortillas with the Mexican omelette. Service was great. My waitress was happy to speak up and repeat herself due to my hearing impediment.

This place was recommended by my aunt. We stopped by for lunch. The place was nice and clean. Our waitress was nice and attentive. Prices were definitely reasonable. I had a plate with 2 enchiladas, 1 taco, and 1 chalupa. My aunt had enchiladas with carne guisada. When we first sat down, they brought us a small bowl of soup and chips with salsa. The soup had a good taste, and the salsa was warm and not really spicy. It wasn't all that busy when we went, so everything came out pretty fast. I definitely plan on coming back.

We are in Harlingen visiting from Canada and went out for breakfast at El Sombrero. We had a wonderful experience! Great selection of Mexican and American breakfast, excellent prices and friendly staff! We will definitely go back next time we are in Harlingen.

I loved the restaurant as soon as I picked a seat they brought me a cup of good coffee and a bowl of oatmeal. I ordered the chorizo and egg taco which was great and they put a little bit of homemade refried beans on the plate. I got the beans and oatmeal free. Actually everyone was getting oatmeal free. The total bill was $3.65 and I was full.

Sombreros is one of my favorite places to eat. Really good lunch specials. Price and taste. Good customer service, too. Breakfast depends on what you order. It's been a hit or miss for me.

Very good place to eat. I got the Mexican plate and it was delicious. Came with two enchiladas, one crunchy taco, one chalupa and rice and beans. Our waitress was great as well. The price was very fair. I’ll come back if I’m in town again

One of the best Mexican restaurants to eat at. Plenty of food & our waitress was the best. More people need to tip them better since they make under $3.00 per hour. They have a family to support & deal with cranky customers.

Long, long, long, long, long wait times on the 3 visits, good food, good prices, so close to where I work, last visit just couldn’t take it, had to get up and leave. So disappointing. (Wait time is about 45min-1 hour easy, on slow or busy days)

Very poor service. Very surprised I thought this would be our Sunday go to I was wrong.

Angelica Ramos

Bad quality of the food order that I got. There was so much fat in the barbacoa plate, reasons why people are getting fat nowadays. I only enjoyed the beans and potatoes. The customer service was decently okay. As for food portions, it was too much barbacoa than the beans, y'all should at least ask y'all's customers how much food they want.

Samantha

Incredibly disappointed with the service. We placed an order and completely dismissed my order when I picked it up and and got home the order was wrong and when we called the 2nd lady who originally took my order again dismissed what I was telling her and made it sound like it was my fault it even happened. They didn't offer to make it right or a refund. We've been eating there for years with no complaints until now. Plenty of new Mexican restaurants opening close by that will appreciate our support.

This place sucks. Literally taste the grease going down your throat.i guess everyone in the table should share and go half on 2 tortillas...I finished my tea in the 56 minute wait. The plate itself is bigger then the portion of food given to you. Asked for salsa and they brought back watered down tomato soup.....what's the hype about this place...Do Better!!
